CHEESE IS NOT A FACTOR IN LACTOSE INTOLERANCE

Cheese is an ideal source of nutrients for people suffering from

lactose

intolerance, according to gastroenterologists who study the condition.

" Most cheeses are so low in lactose that they do not present a

problem for

patients with lactase deficiency, " said D. Levitt, M.D.,

gastroenterologist

at the Veteran's Affairs Medical Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and

lead

author of a New England Journal of Medicine study on lactose

intolerance. In

addition to being low in lactose, experts agree that cheese provides

essential

nutrients, such as calcium, that Americans aren't getting enough of.

Most of the lactose is removed from the cheese with the whey

during the

manufacturing process. As a result, most ripened cheese contain about

95

percent less lactose (.4-1 gram per serving) than whole milk (9-12 grams

per

serving), and less even that Lactaid milk (3 grams per serving), a

brand of fluid

milk that has most of the lactose specially removed.

The New England Journal of Medicine study, which investigated

the

affects of milk on people with self-diagnosed severe lactose

intolerance, found

that tens of thousands of people may be mistakenly diagnosing themselves

as

lactose intolerant. In addition, the study determined that almost

everyone could

tolerate an eight-ounce glass of milk - or up to 12 grams of lactose - a

day without

experiencing any symptoms. Twelve grams of lactose correlates to the

amount

found in an entire cheese pizza, or four or five cheese sandwiches, more

than

most people would ever eat in one day.

Cheese is Low in Lactose and Nutrient Dense

In addition to its low lactose content, cheese is nutrient

dense. The milk

curds, which form cheese, retain almost all of the milk's protein, and

important

vitamins and minerals, such as calcium ,phosphorus, magnesium,

riboflavin, and

vitamin A.

Health professionals agree that too many Americans - 9 out of 10

women -

are not getting the calcium they need to help build strong bones and

prevent

osteoporosis. The 1994 National Institutes of Health Consensus

Development

Conference on Optimal Calcium Intake recommends a higher calcium intake

for

most groups and states the preferred sources of calcium are through

foods rich in

calcium, such as dairy products.

" To meet NIH's new daily recommendations for optimal health,

many

Americans will have to double the amount of calcium in their diets,' "

said Edith

Hogan, R.D., a consulting nutritionist in Washington, DC.

" Cheese

provides a tasty and viable solution for all groups of Americans to

increase their

intake of calcium - not only does this one product provide a wide range

of

flavoring possibilities, it is also a good way for people with lactose

intolerance to

get the calcium they need. "

Ingredient Substitutions

For butter substitute Fleischmann's unsalted margarine, Crisco or soy butter.

For melted butter substitute oil or melted margarine.

For milk used simply as a liquid, substitute water or Rice Dream. If you're

baking,

fruit juice can add a nice touch. Reduce the amount of sugar that the recipe

calls

for, though.

For cream, try Farm Rich, available in the refrigerator section of many

grocery

stores.

For milk used as a thickener, substitute pureed tofu. (Be sure to puree the

tofu

completely. Finding granular lumps of tofu in a recipe calling for milk is

repulsive.)

If you need to make a roux (which calls for butter and flour) use margerine

and any

other liquid instead. You can thicken soups lightly this way, which permits

you to

make " cream " recipes without the cream.

For condensed or evaporated milk one reader suggests using Jello " cookable "

vanilla pudding mix with soy milk to substitute in recipes for evaporated or

condensed milk. She says, " It works particurlarly well in pumpkin pie. It

would

probably also work in fudge sauce -- just use a receipe based on evaporated or

condensed milk. I add 3 tablespoons of pudding mix to 3/4 cup of soy milk to

get

the equivalent of 3/4 cup of the other milks. "

The following items on any ingredients list are no-nos:

milk solids ( " curds " )

whey

casein (sodium caseinate, most commonly)

lactose (sodium lactylate, frequently)

lactalbumin and other names that begin with
